FGCD2444SF0A Frigidaire Dishwasher - Instructions

Most of the time is spent cleaning out under the sink, turning off water valves, disconnecting hoses and collecting water. One valve did leak when closed. Then pull out the dishwasher from under the counter, unplug and lay flat on floor.
Disconnect power from pump. Remove 2 screws and bracket that holds pump in place, gentle twist and pull out pump. Place tow gaskets around pump. Wet gaskets and gently push pump in place be sure to line it up so bracket goes back in place. Tighten screws, put hoses back in place, push dishwasher back, connect hoses, open valves, check for leaks then run the dishwasher and check operation of pump. I recommend viewing replacement on part select youtube video to determine if you can make the repair.

Seriously very easy. Took screws from side of door on inside of washer, silver cover plate came off and was simple to replace the latch using torque screwdriver and phillips screwdriver.

Had to reposition the two moveable dish rack to accommodate the silverware drain rack. Very simple to do.

Turned off elecrtic and water to dishwasher and pulled dishwasher out from under cabinet. Removed broken hose using pliers to open hose clamps.
installed new hose.

I unclipped the plastic pieces at the front of the rack. This was very easy. Then I removed the old rack. I then removed the water sprayer from the old rack and placed it on the new rack. This was simple and I unscrewed the water sprayer by hand and snapped out. Putting it on the new assembly was very easy. Then I placed the new rack on the two stainless steel sliders and refastened the plastic clips at the ends. It was no problem.

VERY simple---unscrewed three screws on the broken part (the little nubs that held on the bottom spinner were broken off), screwed the new one back in, re-attached the spinner.

I was VERY pleased with the customer service and quick shipping (ordered on Sunday night, the part was delivered Wednesday morning). I would definitely recommend this site to anyone, and would use it again. Five Stars!!!!

Unscrewed the housing for the old piece and screwed on the new part. No tools needed. Easy to use website, fast delivery. Very easy.

Pulled old gasket off with small hook. Replaced new gasket by pressing in with my fingers.

Your service was great, the basket came in two parts and all I had to do was put the two together and put it in the dishwasher. I am glad we were able to get a new one. Thanks again for such quick service. Thank you very much for such great service.

I read the instructions that others had posted and completed the repair in less than 5 minutes!

After moving the dishwasher out from the cabinetry, I removed the screws holding the pump in place. Pulling the pump from the formed plastic opening, I found a toothpick lodged in the pump housing. At the same time I noticed that the front o-ring was deformed due to being the incorrect size (too large). It was installed at the factory this way.

I went online to search for new parts. PartSelect was the second or third listing on the search page. I submitted the dishwasher model number and was taken to a set of parts illustrations. I was easily able to find the o-rings I needed.

Pulled the dishwasher out, rolled it onto its right side, removed the old pump by removing the 2 electeical connectors and 3 #20 torque screws, and replaced the pump. The most annoying thing was it dumping water on the floor. The rest was relatively easy.

Removed old hose and went to install new hose from Part Select. Part received was not the same as advertised. It was 6-8 inches shorter than the original hose. Would not make the necessary turns because of shorter length. I even went to Video instruction on installation even though I have been in Machine repair for 30 years , this video showed using the shorter hose and when installed in the video hose also had a kink because of hose length. Had to stop repair and go to hardware store and purchase a longer hose. This purchased hose from the hardware was 50% cheaper and actually worked. I also paid for 2-3 day shipping and received part 7 days later. I am very disappointed with Parts Select and am an owner of an Equipment Rental Facility and will never utilize Parts Select again.

My brother in law installed it for me. There was some difficulty finding the right angle but once we realized we needed to start at the very right side it went well. So far no more leaks.
